10 TOP DESTINATIONS TO VISIT IN 2015
What if you could visit the Grand Canyon and Napa Valley within the course of one afternoon?
That, in essence, is what’s on offer in Salta Province, a dusty patch of Andean Argentina where the country bumps up against Bolivia, Chile and Paraguay.
Salta is home to colorful colonial towns, gnarled mountainscapes and the highest altitude wineries in the world.
With a $160 million plan underway to turn this largely domestic destination into the eco-tourism capital of Latin America, this is a cat that’s about to be let out of the bag.
If you like your wine with a side of adventure — and want to take advantage of Argentina’s exceedingly favorable “blue dollar” exchange rate — Salta will be ready and waiting in 2015.

10 ROMANTIC DESTINATIONS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT
Cafayate is a scenic tour de force of dramatic pre-Andean peaks, romantic hilltop estancias and seductive street-side cafes.
It also doubles as Argentina’s second wine center after Mendoza.
Whereas Mendoza is the big bold land of Malbec, Cafayate is a region dominated by the aromatic Torrontes, a white wine grape that grows exceptionally well in the cold and windswept Calchaquies Valley.
At this Andean anomaly you can sit with a glass of wine among the vines and stare out at a multicolored mountain-scape of twisted sedimentary strata that looks, at least to tipsy eyes, as if it was crafted by an abstract expressionist.

THE NEW YORK TIMES

IN ARGENTINA, WINE, ART AND ALTITUDE
Our friends love modern art but don’t really drink; my companion and I are closer to the reverse. So as we researched places where we could travel and all come away happy, Colomé, in northwest Argentina, stood out. It’s a mountain winery with a contemporary art museum and sounded like the perfect two-couple compromise — a little bit high culture, a little bit grand cru.
I envisioned a lethargic, tippling road trip like the one in “Sideways.” What we found — after what seemed like a long and needlessly perilous journey through Death Valley-like deserts and narrow one-lane dirt roads that corkscrew up and down towering mountain ranges — was more like Herzog’s “Fitzcarraldo,” a film about an eccentric tycoon fixated on erecting an opera house in the middle of the Amazon…

THE ROUGE GUIDE

TRAIN TO THE CLOUDS
Travelling through the Quebrada del Toro gorge on the Tren a las Nubes, or Train to the Clouds, is an unashamedly touristic experience. Clambering from the station in Salta (it never exceeds 35 km/hr) to the magnificent Meccano-like La Polvorilla viaduct, high in the altiplano, the smart train – with a leather-upholstered interior, shiny wooden fittings, spacious seats, a dining car, a post office and even altitude-sickness remedies – was originally built to service the borax mines in the salt flats of Pocitos and Arizaro, 300km beyond La Polvorilla. The viaduct lies 219km from Salta, and on the way the train crosses 29 bridges and twelve viaducts, threads through 21 tunnels, swoops round two gigantic 360° loops and chugs up two switchbacks. La Polvorilla, seen on many posters and in all the tour operators’ brochures, is 224m long, 64m high and weighs over 1600 tonnes; built in Italy, it was assembled here in 1930…

EN ROUTE IN ARGENTINA´S DRAMATIC NORTH
Even if you’ve been not just to Buenos Aires but also the pampas, Mendoza, Córdoba,Patagonia, and Iguazú Falls, that still leaves much more wonderful stuff to explore inArgentina. I recently took the sunny city of Salta in the far north of the country as the stepping-off point for a 900-kilometre (560-mile) round trip, with only the first 90 minutes’ drive outside the city on paved road. It’s an area that is so little known that in some parts they see almost no visitors all year round.
